Summary:
High schools in the Cheney School District area include four programs serving grades 6–12: two traditional 9–12 high schools, one 6–12 alternative program, and one 7–12 Open Doors program. Together, they serve 1,666 students, although enrollment is concentrated at Cheney High School, which accounts for about 90% of the students listed.
Cheney High School is the strongest overall option on the available measures. Its 2024–25 graduation rate was 94.4%, with a 3.2% dropout rate, both better than district and state averages. It also had the highest reported 2025–26 ELA proficiency rate at 65.88% and improved from the 40th to the 57th percentile in school rankings between 2023–24 and 2025–26. Math proficiency was much weaker at 31.53%, nearly matching the district but below the state, while science declined to 42.64%. Parents considering Three Springs High School should note its smaller size, higher student need, and mixed results: science improved substantially, but its 69.0% graduation rate and 13.33% ELA proficiency remained well below district and state levels. Its ranking has nevertheless improved from the bottom of the distribution to the 21st percentile.
WIN Academy serves a smaller, specialized population and has the most concerning current completion measures: a 64.8% graduation rate and 27.0% dropout rate. Its ELA proficiency was 16%, while math and science results were suppressed and therefore unknown, not zero. Cheney Open Doors has only 10 students, so current school-level graduation, dropout, and testing results are not reported; its available outcome data is historical and should not be treated as current. Comparisons among the smaller programs should account for their specialized missions, small cohorts, and different student needs.
